Abstract
The effects of wall compliance on blood flow patterns through vascular grafts were studied. The results were presented graphically by showing the wall shear stresses along the bed of the artery and the stresses at the suture for variable material properties. The results showed that there were significant differences in the wall shear stresses along the bed of the artery between rigid and compliant models.
